Stoma and bum leakage

Hi . It’s usual to lose small amounts of mucus from your bottom but not regular leakage so it may be worth running it past your stoma nurse? I found hemmorhoid cream to be quite useful as it has a slightly anaesthetising effect? x

Hi Ya, 

I had similar discharge and the stoma nurse gave me some barrier cream which helped. ‘Ultra Barrier Cream’ Just in case it helps you too. Hope you get sorted. 

hi AllanA1due, I had rectal cancer.  Chemo and radiotherapy  caused so much pain and discomfort. My rectum and anus were removed. Most of my pain was internal. But Applying plain greek yoghurt on the affected area helped exterior pain  as did products with manuka honey in them. The other thing I used to do was of a night time give the stoma 10 minutes  exposure to the air.     Speak to your Stoma Nurse, they're  very knowledgable and they need to advise about leakages.
